Abstract

The invention relates to the field of battery manufacturing and energy storage, in particular to a preparation method of a high conductivity bipolar plate (current collector) for a vanadium battery, and the preparation method can solve the problems that the high temperature mixing is easy to cause the resin oxidation, cause the disintegration of polymerized long chain and to further lead to the decrease of the mechanical performance of the material and the decrease of the service life, and the like. A conductive additive and polymer resin powder are taken as raw materials of conductive plastics, a volatile solvent is taken as a dispersion medium, the polymer resin and the conductive additive are fully mixed by stirring and then filtered, and the mixture is dried in an oven and then arranged in a mold for hot-press forming. The preparation method firstly mixes the conductive additive and the polymer resin powder in the dispersion medium evenly; the even mixture of the two is obtained after removing the medium, the heating and the mold pressing are directly carried out, thereby preparing the bipolar plate (current collector) of the vanadium battery. The process method is simple, the operation is easy, the material mixing is even, and the conductive plastic bipolar plate (current collector) with the resistivity of 0.2-0.5 omega.cm, thereby being in line with the using indicators of the vanadium battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of battery manufacturing and energy storage, in particular to a method for preparing a high-conductivity bipolar (current collector) plate for a vanadium battery. Background technique [0002] Vanadium battery, the full name of vanadium ion redox flow battery, is a new type of green battery. Its energy is stored in the form of positive and negative electrolytes, and the positive and negative reactions are: [0003] Positive reaction: VO 2 + +2H + +e - →VO 2+ +H 2 O E 0 = 1.00V [0004] Negative reaction: V 3+ +e - →V 2+ E. 0 =-0.26V [0005] The positive and negative electrolytes are each driven by a pump, and reduction and oxidation reactions occur on the electrodes on both sides of the ion exchange membrane, respectively, to complete charge and discharge. The current for charging and discharging the battery is conducted by the bipolar (current collector) plate and finally collected. Th...
